Do you love to cook—and take real pride in how your food looks and tastes? Are you the kind of cook who steps out of the kitchen to ask, “How was everything?” and truly wants the answer?

We’re looking for someone who cares about presentation, follows recipes and guidelines, and takes ownership of every plate that leaves the kitchen. Someone who understands that meals are one of the most important parts of a resident’s day.

At Arbors/Ivy, dining is about comfort, connection, and quality—and we want a cook who feels the same way.

  • Follow all health, safety, and sanitation regulations
  • Support the chef and kitchen team as needed
  • Take pride in every meal served

What We’re Looking For

  • A genuine love of cooking and food presentation
  • Someone who takes pride in their work and the dining experience
  • Friendly, approachable, and open to feedback
  • Detail-oriented and committed to following recipes and guidelines
  • Team player with a positive, professional attitude

Benefits

  • PTO
  • Health and dental insurance
  • Life insurance
  • Short- and long-term disability
  • Paid holidays
  • Retirement assistance
  • Employee appreciation programs
  • And more

Requirements

  • Ability to read and prepare recipes independently
  • Working knowledge of cooking fundamentals
  • Serve-Safe certification (or ability to obtain)
  • Allergy awareness and anti-choking training
  • Must be at least 18 years old

Join a team where your cooking brings comfort, connection, and smiles every day.

Apply today and take pride in every plate you serve.
